These Owls also dropped their season opener, 46-14 at Western Kentucky. The Hilltoppers finished with 552 yards passing and 97 rushing, amassing 649 yards. Rice failed to put pressure on quarterback Mike White and had only 288 total yards offensively in a sloppy game.<br\/><br\/>&#8220;They all tried to do more than they&#8217;re capable of at times,&#8221; Rice coach David Bailiff said. &#8220;They just have to relax and play, and we&#8217;re going to be just fine. We&#8217;ll get it worked out. The great news is that it wasn&#8217;t an effort thing.&#8221;<br\/><br\/>Other things to know when Rice visits Army on Saturday:<br\/><br\/><b>DROP THIS<\/b><br\/><br\/>Tyler Stehling is the starting quarterback for Rice for the first time in his career. He threw for 183 yards and ran for 85 yards and a score against Western Kentucky. He also threw two interceptions and his receivers faltered badly.<br\/><br\/>&#8220;We had six drops, or he (Stehling) could have had a magnificent night,&#8221; Bailiff said. &#8220;We&#8217;ve got to eliminate those drops. Everybody is going to drop a couple, but you can&#8217;t drop six.&#8221;<br\/><br\/><b>TURNOVERS RULE<\/b><br\/><br\/>The Army defense enters the game with three interceptions, half its total for all of last season. The Black Knights lead the nation in turnover margin, tied with seven other schools. Last season, Army finished 113th (-0.92) in that category.<br\/><br\/><b>KEEP IT ON THE GROUND<\/b><br\/><br\/>The Army option gained 329 yards rushing against Temple on 67 attempts and scored four touchdowns. Monken wants to get 1,000 yards rushing from the quarterback spot, but the fullbacks starred against Temple. Andy Davidson had 121 yards on 21 carries to pace the attack.<br\/><br\/><br\/><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>IS THIS THE YEAR?<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Army has had only one winning season \u2014 7-6 in 2010 under Rich Ellerson \u2014 since Bob Sutton led the Black Knights to a 10-2 mark and a national ranking 20 years ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>WIN STREAK<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rice has beaten Army five straight times, including all three meetings at West
